Before you choose the ring pattern to
register
7
You can only register one Distinctive Ring
pattern with the machine. Some ring patterns
cannot be registered. The ring patterns below
are supported by your Brother machine.
Register the one your telephone company
gives you.
NOTE
• Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short
and is the most commonly used.
• If the ring pattern you received is not on
this chart, call your telephone company
and ask for one that is shown.
 The machine will only answer calls to its
registered number.
 The first two rings are silent on the
machine. This is because the fax must
<<listen>> to the ring pattern (to compare
it to the pattern that was ‘registered’).
(Other telephones on the same line will
ring.)
 If you program the machine correctly, it
will recognize the registered ring pattern of
the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and
then answer with a fax tone. When the
‘voice number’ is called, the machine will
not answer.
Registering the Distinctive Ring
pattern Very important!
7
After you set the Distinctive Ring feature to
On , your Distinctive Ring number will receive
faxes automatically. The receive mode is
automatically set to
Manual and you cannot
change it to another receive mode while
Distinctive Ring is set to
On . This ensures the
Brother machine will only answer the
Distinctive Ring number and not interfere
when your main telephone number is called.
When Distinctive Ring is on, the Touchscreen
will show
D/R as the Receive Mode.
